DIFFERENT STRINGS
This month’s Different Strings features another ukulele. But not just any uke, but one made from the Tree
Mahogany! This little beauty is crafted by Paul Woolson and features a double top and double back!
As a tenor uke, it sports a 17.02” scale and has an Adirondack Red Spruce on the outer skin, Lutz spruce on the inner for the top. The back is an outer and inner skin of the Tree mahogany. Trimmed in Indian Rosewood binding with a 7-piece lamination of mahogany, maple and east Indian rosewood, it’s every bit as sophisticated as its larger brothers.
